Many people do not know, but everyone who is currently working or looking for a job can apply for money annually from the Stimulus Pot of the Labor Market Center (Stap). This is amazing budget step It is €1,000 that you can spend on a training, course or education. The idea is that people can continue to develop in this way to keep up with rapidly changing job markets or to find other work more easily. If you take a look at the available lessons, you will soon discover that there are also many useful technical courses.

You can apply for the budget every year and every two months a new application period begins during which you can apply. Sometimes your money runs out and you have to wait for the next application period. The requirement is that you are 18 years of age or older and do not have an AOW. The training or course must also be in the Stap Training Registry – not every course automatically qualifies – and it must not have started when the Stap budget was requested.

We have gone through a bunch of courses and have collected a number of interesting technical courses. There is nothing to your taste? here You will find more courses that you can follow with Stap.
